Recognizing the Signs of Prostate Cancer and What to Do

Recognizing the signs of prostate cancer can be difficult as there
are usually no symptoms in the early stages of the cancer’s development.
Most prostate cancer is slow-growing to start with and may never
actually cause any pain, problems or symptoms in a man’s lifetime.

However, there are certain prostate cancer warnings signs which may indicate a more aggressive and fast-growing cancer.

Signs of Prostate Cancer

The following are signs of prostate cancer, however, it should be
noted that these could be associated with another health issue unrelated
to prostate cancer:

Feeling the need to urinate more often, especially at night

Feeling a strong and sudden urge to urinate

Having difficulty urinating

Straining or taking a long period of time to urinate

Having a weak flow of urine

Feeling that your bladder isn’t fully emptied after urinating

Dribbling urine

Pain when urinating/ejaculating

Blood in urine or semen

Difficulty getting or maintaining an erection

Frequent pains in lower back, upper thighs or hips

Although these are all prostate cancer warning signs, they could be
due to another issue such as prostate enlargement which is a
non-cancerous condition that affects the majority of older men.

The best way to discover if the symptoms are related to prostate
cancer is to have a DRE (Digital Rectal Exam) as an expert like your urologist will be able
to feel the difference between cancerous and non-cancerous tissue and
will be able to tell you if the symptoms are related to another health
issue.

Another option which may be offered to you by a doctor is a PSA
test, which can lead to unnecessary procedures and is quite a
controversial test, as you can read here.

Ultimately, if you discover that you have one or more of these
prostate cancer signs the best course of action is ‘watchful waiting’,
especially if the cancer is low-risk. This has been backed up by studies
which have been published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology (JCO) and
can be found here - http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/releases/162542.php.

It is important to understand that ‘watchful waiting’ also
incorporates an overhaul in diet and lifestyle which can help to prevent
the cancer from spreading.
